Chapter 102: Showing Off His Wealth
Hugh was leaning against the bar counter with a gla.s.s of expensive red wine in his hand. He shook his wine gla.s.s and said proudly, “What do you mean? I’m only worth a few billion.
“Our eldest brother, Jayce, is worth a hundred billion. Our second brother, Nelson, is a big star. He makes a lot of money every year!
“Your third brother, Griffith, is a world-cla.s.s pianist. He does a few months of touring around the world every year!
“Your fourth brother, Monroe, is worth the entire Hall family!
“Your fifth brother, Oh, right, you haven’t met him yet. His name is h.e.l.ler. He’s, my twin. He is still busy with his career in Europe.
“You are right about one thing. I am indeed the poorest one among us brothers!
“Even Herman, our youngest brother, the world’s top neurosurgeon, has opened a hospital. Every year, the world’s richest people ask him to perform their surgery. Do you know that he has a booking fee of tens of millions?
“But you don’t have to feel inferior. Your brothers are rich, but money is nothing to us. It’s not even useful! In the future, I’ll raise you like a puppy!”
Mary replied, “Thank you for being willing to raise a pet!”
Mary felt that she had been flaunted to by their wealth.
It was as if the millions that she had spent on her life were just like they a few thousands!
Most importantly, her brothers were so rich and capable. She felt like a good-for-nothing!
However, she was a little surprised that her fifth and sixth brothers were actually twins!
“I feel very ordinary. I don’t deserve to be your sister.” Mary said again.
Of course, she wasn’t really feeling inferior. She was just teasing Hugh.
Herman interrupted, “Okay, it’s time for dinner.”
The steak that Dr. Herman personally made was delicious.
That night, after Mary washed up, Herman personally came to change her dressing.
“After changing the dressing today, you can remove the gauze tomorrow. From now on, use iodophor every day to disinfect it. After a week, it should be completely scarred over and can be soaked in water.”
Mary had been in the hospital for the past few days, and the nurses had put waterproof gauze on her and helped her take a bath.
Today, at the house, there were only two older brothers, so she just casually scrubbed around the wound.
“Then can I walk by myself tomorrow?”
Mary just felt that it was not very convenient to sit in a wheelchair.
Herman replied, “I suggest not to so that you won’t disturb the wound. This is a gunshot wound, the wound is not small… wait until it is completely scarred over!” Herman said so, and Mary had to follow his advice.
Herman got up and prepared to go out with the first aid kit.
Mary supported herself on the bed and prepared to move over. Her posture was stiff, and her movements were unfamiliar to her.
Herman paused for a moment, turned around and put the first aid kit on the ground and then strode over to pick Mary up.
Mary didn’t dare move until Herman put her under the blanket and covered her.
Mary grinned at Herman. “Thank you, Herman!”
Herman sighed helplessly.
Mary was a good patient because she cooperated with the treatment, and her condition was not complicated each time.
But… she was not a good sister; she was admitted to the hospital twice in a month…what kind of sister was so reckless?
Herman lowered his eyelids, casting two shadows under his long eyelashes.
“I hope I won’t see you in the hospital again.”
Mary knew that Herman was not happy with her recently because she had been injured again.
“Okay! How about… I choose to stay with you next time?”
Mary observed Herman’s expression and found that there was finally a hint of warmth on his cold face. She could not help but feel amused.
Herman turned around and said, “Hugh has been planning for you to come over for a long time. Maybe next time. I’m leaving now. Goodnight.”
Mary did not expect Hugh to hog her ahead of her brothers.
Was she already so popular?
Were her brothers really starting to accept her?
She was still a little happy.
“Good night, Herman.”
